Betting tips 7 Nov 2024
The upcoming encounter will be a significant test for APOEL. In the face of Fiorentina's assured performances, the Cypriots will strive to display their best and aim to put up a respectable challenge against one of the leaders. Fiorentina sit second in the Conference League with two wins from two matches and have every chance to extend their winning streak.
APOEL are third in the Cypriot Championship with 17 points, trailing leaders Pafos by 8 points. Their Conference League campaign isn't faring as well, with one draw and one loss in two matches, scoring just one goal. APOEL tend to keep games tight at home, with at least three goals scored in six of their last seven encounters. Notably, key midfielder Kingsley Sarfo will miss the match, making it especially difficult for the hosts to maintain balance, which could impact their defence against Fiorentina's potent attack.
Fiorentina are in peak form, having won their last seven matches with an aggregate score of 21-4, showing confidence both at home and away. In their past four away fixtures, the Italians have conceded just two goals, highlighting their solid defence and organised play. They boast one of the most consistent attacking lines, averaging 2.2 goals per match in the Conference League. Injuries to Danilo Cataldi and Albert Gudmundsson are not expected to impact their overall potential, as coach Raffaele Palladino has a deep bench and actively rotates the squad.
In this fixture, Fiorentina are clear favourites. The Italian side display quality football on the road and a reliable defensive game, which will be a significant challenge for APOEL. Considering the visitors' form and statistics, a bet on Fiorentina to win appears optimal.
